WBRU in Providence is a commercial station affiliated with Brown 
University.  I'm not sure that one counts though since I think a 
trustee or alumni group actually holds the license.  Maybe Scott can 
shed some light on that.

WYBC-FM in New Haven is owned by Yale University and is a commercial 
outlet on 94.3.  The station runs an Urban AC format and has a joint 
sales agreement with Cox.  Yale also owns an AM as well (WYBC/1340) but 
I believe that one does not run commercials, even though they could if 
they wanted to.
